E/s to match Powersurge?

[chillipea]

Hi

I'm looking for an eyeshadow that will match Powersurge eye khol. The SA at the MAC counter said Sumptuous Olive will match ok and while it's a gorgeous colour it's still green - whereas I'm looking for a 'antique gold' sort of colour. Not a bright shiny gold and not beige either.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Am I looking for something that doesn't exist?

Thanks heaps!

although power sumptuous olive looks green in the pan it is more of a bronzy colour, try one of the gold pigments,or what about the engaging mes.

I suggest Woodwinked e/s.

Thank you both. I have sumptuous olive (it's one of my regulars). The colour it is in the pan is the colour it is on my skin (I'm quite pale).

Woodwinked looked a little too brown but I'll have another look at it in sunlight rather than fluro lights...

Thanks for the suggestion.

I am bumping this up for anyone else, because I have come to Looove Powersurge e/k. It is a slightly cool-toned antiqued gold pencil that looks amazing with blue eyes.
I love to use it for a more natural look--try it with Soba e/s, or all that glitters all over the lid. For NARS addicts, try it with Cyprus e/s.

I use it heavy on the upper lid line with one of the above shadows as a wash (with Buttery e/k on the lower waterline [or any soft white gold highlighter type pencil really], lots of dark brown-black mascara and it looks fresh and pretty with a little extra something that gets attention without looking overly done up.

HTH someone!

If you're just looking for colours that go well with Powersurge, try Trax eyeshadow. I actually bought them together when I went to SoHo. The gold liner really brings out the gold sparkles in Trax. If you want an eyeshadow that is essentially the same colour as the eyeliner, try Woodwinked.
